Chapter 56

Glancing once more at the demeanor of Chen Cheng and He Yingqin, he suddenly realized that only the second path remained for him.
Listening to his voice over the phone, it was even gentler and more delicate, intoxicating and relaxing, making every call with him feel like a pure enjoyment.
To them, a mortal like her who had been chosen could achieve rebirth simply by completing tasks; she should be overwhelmed with gratitude and bowing in thanks, so how could she possibly dare to make demands?
This building was for the use of all students in the martial arts academy, housing many advanced training rooms designed to exceptionally well-train students in various skills, such as physical stamina, mental acuity, reflex response, and the application of aura.
Jian Yan looked through her lenses into his peach-blossom eyes, her heart skipping a beat. She felt as if she were being sucked into a deep, unfathomable vortex, about to be completely devoured without leaving a single scrap of flesh or bone.
Lin Ran muttered to herself about receiving quite a few calls today while checking who was calling, only to see a string of unfamiliar numbers with no saved contact name.
After being soaked, this Xuan paper had already separated from the outer wooden shell, and with a gentle nudge, it peeled right open.
Seeing that Jiang Hao remained completely unfazed by threats, the two members of the Gao family felt their legs turn to jelly with panic, and they were already making preparations to flee.
The path to becoming the supreme powerhouse must undoubtedly be built upon piles of corpses, destined for both solitude and cold-bloodedness.
Faced with these data, everyone else was completely clueless and unable to intervene, left only to watch from afar.
Yun Xiao looked in astonishment at Yun Yang's swift retreating figure, completely dumbfounded. Was this still her previously stern and upright grandfather?
Whether due to the appearance of the fierce beast or not, the normally tranquil nether world actually began to stir with wind. A violent gale blew through Hariya's soft, smooth hair, drifting a wisp of it straight into my nostrils.
After eating a meager "dinner" that barely filled her stomach, Hariya washed her wooden bowl and sat back down beside the campfire.
Li Ziting said nonchalantly, unwrapping a piece of candy and popping it into his mouth, his youthful face entirely serene and profoundly indifferent.
When Lan'er finished detailing Li Qingmu's crimes and Princess Jin asked Wu Teng for his statement, Wu Teng was even slightly stunned for a moment.
Walking over, he pulled the door shut, his gaze locking onto the egg-shaped hanging chair on the balcony. Sitting inside and swaying gently, Ye Zhichen had not sat in it even once during the two years since he bought it.

They were all practitioners of the Dao, and the further they walked down this path, the more they understood its arduousness. Almost every single step forward required paying a price of countless hardships and sweat.
Xie Dongya opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but as the words reached his lips, he simply could not bear to voice them.
Having nearly exhausted all my energy, I rested well for two days without stepping a single foot outside my front door. Thanks to having Zhang Qingrui by my side, she busied herself running around the house to take care of me, allowing me to recover my physical strength rapidly.
Chu Xian could barely catch her breath. Who acts like this? She had already contracted smallpox, and yet he was still kissing her endlessly? Was he really just acting lawlessly because he had survived smallpox in the past?
"If it allowed the imperial concubine-mother to see that it truly harbored murderous intent, did you honestly think the imperial concubine-mother would let it fly safely back to the inner courtyard to fetch things in exchange for the antidote?" Feng Xi said indifferently.
"There's nothing much to it. Aren't you following your mother? She is a disciple of the Vermilion Bird," the crow said.
Seeing it act this way, Wu Yuzi could not help but curse silently in his heart: What an absolute old tortoise.
The fact that Yin Suhang was merely a puppet had long been an open "secret" among the upper echelons. If not for the lingering prestige and legacy of his father, which earned him immense popularity, he would have long been trampled underfoot and toyed with at will by those true wealthy prodigals.
Cui Xu looked at the twenty pairs of red eyes, inexplicably feeling a touch of emotion. However, this emotion did not even last twenty minutes past breakfast.
The second line of the couplet was structurally balanced and full of poetic imagery. The phrase about how this so-called old beast lifted its hooves seemed to be questioning how this horse managed to raise its foot.
On the surface, she looked utterly disdainful, but she pulled a large soft pillow over to rest beneath herself, propped up her upper body, and narrowed her eyes to watch Chu Xian at her leisure.
"So it is Alliance Leader Yao." The Sable Emperor exchanged a head-on blow with Jun Chongtian before they retreated from each other, only then casting his gaze toward the old man.
Inside were two couplets, one of which his father had obtained while traveling through the Changbai Mountains, though he had never managed to think of a matching second line.
Cen Wu inexplicably found herself swallowing a mouthful of romantic devotion. A fiancé? Then what kind of relationship did she and Jiang Huangsheng share now?
Gu Heng was both amused and angered. She walked into the main burial chamber, picked up a crowbar from the side, and smashed that jade sculpture to pieces.
Karan across from her opened her mouth and said something, but Jiang Lan didn't hear it. Her ears were ringing from the sudden drop in oceanic pressure, and she would need at least some time to adjust.

The ordeal in the hospital ward had just concluded. Cen Wu had just taken a shower, yet now she was covered in sweat all over again, her clothes clinging tightly to her body, making her feel unbearably miserable.
Only then did Pan Yuhong discover that the red snake was no longer a red snake, but a gigantic toad covered all over in bumpy pustules and exuding a foul, fishy stench that filled Pan Yuhong, who had fallen onto it, with extreme disgust.
This was the ultimate foundation for leveling up. Calculating the time, Ye Fanetian realized he had already spent quite a while in this Nine Heavens Realm, and his loved ones back in the Xuantian Continent must have been extremely worried because of it. What he needed to do now was to completely resolve matters here.
"What's the reason? Let's hear it." Bai Shaozi gripped Tang Tang's hand back tightly, vowing that he never wanted to let go for the rest of his life.
Glaring at Lanxin, Tang Tang thought to herself that unless she was truly seeking death, she would certainly never try to seduce Bai Shaozi—her physical stamina compared to a spoon was still vastly inferior.
On the highway from the capital to Huo County, three black armed police vehicles were speeding along in the same lane.
Su Yun had been feeling anxious, but hearing those words instantly put her mind at ease, knowing that he had already forgiven her.
After walking a little further, the group trudged along listlessly, only to suddenly discover two men standing and talking in the middle of the desert ahead. Viewed from afar, they appeared to be wearing bizarre attire similar to Luo Yu's.
The manor was welcoming distinguished guests, so Tao Yunong took a special day off from work to help Tao Chaoran greet the visitors. Upon learning that Su Shiyuan was among the arrivals, the young top imperial scholar felt a deep resentment in his heart, though in the end, it only transformed into a gentle sigh.
Jinghe's impression of this Han Min grew even worse. Leaving aside Han Min's unspeakable thoughts toward Chu Qi, just the fact that she had taught Sister Xin to be so ungrateful and unprincipled said it all. Therefore, the decision to remove Han Min from the premises was entirely correct.
"She was full of vigor and life when paying respects at Jinghe Hall yesterday, so how did she fall ill? What are her symptoms?" Jinghe could not help but feel puzzled.
Hearing Lin Chong's words, Li Jun and the others hurriedly pushed forward the rebel Wang Qing, presenting him for Lu Junyi, Zhu Wu, and Gongsun Sheng to inspect.
Therefore, there was only one possibility now: a malevolent ghost had passed through this place, discovered something, and then just left like that.
